Solange Cancels Tour

"I really had to make the best decision for my mental/physical health and provide some stability for my family."

Here's a peg for a thinkpiece about women and the work/life balance if I've ever heard one: Solange has cancelled the remainder of her European dates so that she can work on her new album, adjust to a recent move, and start her son at a new school. According to a statement posted on the Pukkelpop website, she says:

“I am completely devastated to announce that I will be canceling my international festival dates for the Summer. I wish I could put in words how much of a difficult decision this was...but between moving part time to a new city, starting my son in a new school, and writing/ recording my new record...I really had to make the best decision for my mental/physical health and provide some stability for my family. I am so so sooooo sorry if I've disappointed...... and really hope to make it out to those special cities soon enough!”
